The Alachua County Commission and Sheriff Sadie Darnell have their day in Tallahassee set.

In a memo Monday, the Governor’s Office of Policy and Budget set May 19 as the hearing date on Darnell’s appeal of her fiscal year 2010-11 budget. As oft-reported, the appeal involves an approximately $507,000 gap in an agency with a budget of a little more than $65 million.

The meeting will be formally noticed at the end of April in the Florida Administrative Weekly, according to the memo.
If the budget impasse is not resolved after the May hearing, the appeal will be an agenda item during the June 16 Cabinet meeting.
